So some “indigenes” of other states were caught trying to register in the army recruitment exercise in Lagos!
Let’s give a round of applause to the vigilant officers.
Shall we?
But, wait a minute!
What does the Nigerian constitution say about residency in states? Have those arrested lived in Lagos for a minimum of 12 calendar months?
Is it possible for people from other states to have citizenship rights in states where they are resident in Nigeria?
Is Nigeria truly practicing a federal system?
Until we answer these questions, make we just dey play!
